"Dust is everywhere, the ceiling is jumbled, the carpeting needs to be taped down and the water fountain pressure is low," said Kopec, a criminal justice sophomore. Many of Kopec's and other students' concerns will be addressed with Buddig's upcoming renovations. According to Robert Reed, assistant vice president for Student Affairs, the renovations will consist of two phases and an estimated budget of $18 million to $19 million. Reed said that these renovations will change Buddig inside and out. Jan. 9 kicked off the spring semester and the first phase of Buddig Hall renovations. During the current phase, phase one, the installation of a new HVAC system and brick remodeling, among other exterior changes will be made, according to Reed.

Last three provost candidates visit campus By AAREN GORDON Staff Writer This is part two of a two-part provost search series Over the past two weeks, the last three finalists in the search for provost have come to campus. Paul DeVito, Divina Grossman and David Stern all visited within the past few weeks and shared their past experiences and goals for Loyola. PAUL DEVITO DeVito currently serves as the vice provost of Academic Affairs at St. Joseph's University in Philadelphia. He said he values the Jesuit ideal of addressing social justice issues. Rifling on St. Ignatius' quote about social justice, DeVito said, "You can't set the world on fire if you're sitting in your office." On both university and federal levels, DeVito has had experience with developing online education programs. Though students expect online education opportunities, DeVito said it cannot be their only method of higher education learning, because the university would not be educating each student as a whole person. Though DeVito has no experience in construction projects, he does have experience in strategic planning. As vice provost of Academic Affairs, DeVito was involved in developing St. Josephs strategic plan. DeVito has also been involved in revising its curriculum. DeVito helped make minor revisions on the university's new curriculum. According to DeVito, this taught him that curriculum is more successful when it is phased in than when it is abruptly implemented. As a leader, DeVito said he values teamwork. DeVito said he believes in a shared governance between students, faculty and staff. He does not believe in micromanaging deans and their departments, but rather in collaboratively setting goals and helping them if he is asked. He said that acting as a part of a team is as useful as having previous experience as a faculty member. "I think a provost who has come from the faculty has a very good understand of how teaching, scholarship and service come together to support the mission of the institution," DeVito said. Ban on 18 and up bars in the works By COLBY WILSON Staff Writer If you are under 21 in New Orleans, your night life might be in jeopardy. An ordinance presented by City Couneilwoman Jackie Clarkson to ban anyone under 21 from entering bars and music venues has been referred to the Criminal Justice Committee, and a meeting is tentatively set for March 28. The vote was delayed mid- February so that the city council could reflect on the community reactions to the ordinance and allow members of the New Orleans music community to respond. Council members declined to release any official statements to The Maroon on the ordinance until the re-evaluation process is completed. Kony 2012 comes to university By J.
